The Melvins

It's no overstatement to say the Melvins thoroughly reformulated the sound of heavy guitar music in America in both the punk underground and the hard-rock mainstream. This is no small feat, considering that the band—cofounded by guitarist Buzz Osborne and drummer Dale Crover in Montesano, WA, in 1983—have always been unconventional cult artists. Across their first five full-lengths, from 1987's Gluey Porch Treatments to 1993's Houdini, they developed a grinding synthesis of Black Sabbath-inspired metal and hardcore punk aggression that influenced not only Nirvana and grunge but also sludge, stoner rock, doom, and drone metal. The Melvins aren't just heavy, however: They're weird and irreverent, too. You can hear it in Osborne's gnarled bellows and absurdist lyrics. That sensibility also explains why their records—especially those released after hooking up with Mike Patton's Ipecac label in 1999—boast such wildly different personalities. Their 2004 collaboration with industrial pioneer Lustmord descends into dark ambient; by contrast, 2018's Pinkus Abortion Technician is a slab of '70s rock worship featuring Butthole Surfers legend Jeff Pinkus on bass. There's real freedom in the Melvins' unpredictability, and it's just as central to their legacy as all their brilliantly crawling riffs and thunderous grooves.

A Place To Bury Strangers

In 2003, Brooklyn’s A Place To Bury Strangers emerged on the scene out of Oliver Ackermann’s psychotropic vision.  Often cited as ‘ the loudest band in New York’,  APTBS is known for their vicious live performances overloaded with all-consuming visuals, experimental sonic warfare, and treacherous stage destruction. On record, it is pop hooks layered with the sounds of broken machinery and syrup.

Melt Downer

Straight from Austria's underground, Melt Downer blend heavy psych rock with dub, post hardcore and noise rock. Released two full lengh albums on Numavi, Cut Surface, Phantom and Rock is Hell. Toured a bit, played a lot and shared the stage with soulmates such as METZ and Destruction Unit - their sets left even these genre heavyweights with gaping mouths.

DUSK

If the very last solar ray vanishes from these sere and harsh grounds humanity is used to occupy the wan four are ready to hit the road releasing darkness and spreading heaviness over rugged land. Invoked by primeval virtue their unresting specters keep hunting down those wandering vessels which plead to get filled with screaming riffage, hammering drumbeats and gnarling baselines. Mesmerizing vocal fortitude closes the vicious circle and sets free an untameable thunderstorm.

Glazed Curtains

Hey, we’re Glazed Curtains, a band consisting of the four members Consti, Max, Jay & Matei. We are hanging around since 2019 and do music together. Coming from a background of the early 90’s, with influences of bands like Guns N’ Roses, Oasis or Nirvana, we tried to combine heavy riffs with modern elements, to keep a younger audience interested in the one thing we really care about: Making instruments count!

The predominant positive feedback for our past singles encouraged us to prove that with a full-length album called Excuse Me I Got Insomnia, earlier next year. That being said we would really look forward to meet you in person on any of our shows and officially welcome you to the Glazy Family!

PARADEISER

(Thrashmetal-Punk Duo)

“Vier Saiten, a Drumset und Bier - all downhill from here…”

Wohin es genau gehen soll, weiß die Band selbst noch nicht so richtig. Woher sie kommen, ist hingegen unverkennbar. Hauptsächlich 80er Thrash Metal und 90er Deutschpunk, gespickt mit Grunge und Stoner. So in etwa dürfte das Musikregal aussehen, aus welchem die Einflüsse stammen. Auf Genregrenzen wird auch im eigenen Schaffen gepflegt geschissen. Und doch kreiert das spärlich besaitete Zweiergespann einen eigenen Sound, der mit ein wenig Mut zur Lücke und einer ordentlichen Portion Punch serviert wird.

There is this subtile kind of melancholy and vulnerability which makes Christian's drawing so special and intense, a glimpse of insecurity that surrounds the way he sees the world with his own eyes: Hidden beauty on paper.

LURCH are a heavy psychedelic rock band from Vienna, Austria.

https://www.instagram.com/lurch.band

https://lurchband.bandcamp.com/album/demo

https://www.facebook.com/lurch.band/

Aptera swirls forth in a sonic tornado of classic metal, doom, psych, thrash and punk. With members hailing from Italy, Belgium, the US and Brazil, they heeded the call and converged in Berlin, joining their global heavy sensibilities in a cacophony of lashing riffs and propulsive rhythms. Weaving together contemporary and mythological tales of rebellion, revenge, and rising from the ashes, Aptera's “You Can’t Bury What Still Burns” is a guttural cry, a battle call, a resurrection on wings of fire.

Being a vernacular term for long and foggy winters, it should come as no surprise that the band behind The Great Gray Funk seeks to capture that certain eeriness and darkness with its music. As the band emerged during times of pandemic-induced isolation in late fall of 2020, the name seemed doubly appropriate. Over the next two years, the band made its first live appearances and recorded its debut album, to be released in 2023 via StoneFree Records.

While carrying their influences on their sleeves, the band does not shy away from expanding their sonic horizon through constant experimentation. Doom-loaded riffs, bittersweet melodies and in-your-face drumbeats are just as likely to be found alongside catchy hooks and intricate instrumentation, with the occasional cheeky guitar solo thrown in. Consequently, The Great Gray Funk’s music invites the audience to repeat listenings. There is always something new to find and appreciate.

Laser eyes || Pulling the heavy elements of stoner doom into garage rock, Laser Eyes sound more like a multi instrumental endeavor than a 2 piece band. Combining straight to the point hard-rock riffs with dozens of FX pedals, stoner chords and atmospheric ambience, the Austrian heavy rock duo are here to prove they mean business. Expect a heavy load of 90s stoner riffs wrapped in extrovert soundscape.

Truckfighters

Forming in 2001 and quickly making a rise in the stoner scene with their first albums in Gravity X and Phi, the band earned a reputation among the top desert rock acts with their energetic live performances and brash persona. Notably all of the members adopt pseudonyms, with Bassist/Vocalist Ozo and Guitarist Dango being the sole original members throughout.

Their music is often considered to be classic desert rock in the vein of Fu Manchu, Kyuss and Dozer. Hints of psychedelic rock, fuzz rock and heavy metal appear in their songs but their core is the desert sound. Through their tenure, Truckfighters managed to release five studio albums and tour all over the world before an indefinite hiatus in 2018, only to reunite less than a year later touring the entirety of Gravity X.
